Standardization And Calibration Of Flow Cytometry Using Synthetic Cells With Multi-Level Forward And Side Scatter

By Juan Armas, Daixuan Zhang, Harini Kethar, Slingshot Biosciences, Inc.

Are you looking to standardize scatter measurements between cytometric instruments and lab sites? While there are multi-level reference materials for fluorescence that are widely adopted and commercially available, no such standard exists for simultaneous forward and side scatter detection. This makes it challenging to standardize scatter measurements across instruments. Currently patient samples are measured in a trial-and-error fashion and manually adjust settings until results agree, but this method is time consuming and poses a biohazard risk.
